2-vpshock fit to data • Good fit w/NEIVERS 2.0, Borkowski APEC • Possible broad excess ? HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
Summary of spectral results • Flux increase ~ 20% per 6 months • Consistent with ACIS monitoring (Park) • "Shock DEM": distribution 0.3 - 3 keV • Abund.s, NH: similar to Zhekov 2006. • 2 shock approx.: 0.55 and 2.11 keV • Line centers: consistent with 286 km/s • Broad component (?) ~ 9000 km/s.

V_Ring for the lines • Continuousdistribution ? • Discretevelocitiesby component ? HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
Modeling the Spectral-Images • Simple tilted ring • Azimuthal intensity variation • Two spectral components 2.11 & 0.55 keV • Ring velocity foreach component,470 km/s and 240 km/s • … and … HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
Adding "V_Turbulence" • Additional velocity blur of 200 km/s RMS No blur: "blue" excess With blur: better fit Model Residual Residual Model The DATA HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
Interpreting the additional blur • Turbulent velocity • Ion thermal velocity • Oblique shocksgive range of directions.Smith & McCray 2007 HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
Shock Temp and Velocities • Strong, adiabatic shock model has: V_bulk ~ 3/4 V_shock • Post-shock temp and shock velocity: kTe ~ 1.4 keV (V_shock/1000 km/s)2 • kTe ~ 0.55 keV ---> V_bulk ~ 470 km/s • kTe ~ 2.11 keV ---> V_bulk ~ 920 km/s • In reality, complexity reduces V_bulk ? HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
Summary of Spectral-Imaging • Bulk radial motion of X-ray emitting plasma is ~ 200 -- 600 km/s. • Additional "turbulent" velocity range of~ 200 km/s RMS is indicated. • No need for emission out-of-the-equatorial-plane, beyond +/- 25 deg. • Broad component (?) with FWHM~ 9000 km/s -- geometry undetermined.

Future Missions and '87A… • Three words: Chandra, Chandra, Chandra • What future Instrument do you want ? • "What are you rebelling against?""What have ya got?"--> Better instruments are always welcome. • Long-slit [X-ray] GratingSpectrometers are veryuseful (FUSE, STIS, IRS.)

SN 1987A in the future • Blastwave continues,reaching Outer Rings • Other CSMinteractions • Detailed CSM knowledge, Sugerman et al. 2005 • "To astrophysicists in the year 2987." -E. Michael, thesis dedication. 7 arc seconds HETG SN1987A - 8 Years of Science with Chandra
